If we had an extension to skip all the filler garbage in YT videos, I would be ecstatic. Maybe that's doable now? YT captions -> identify fluff timestamps via a browser LLM -> insert segments onto the video timeline, which automatically skip, a la SponsorBlock.

We could slash through Youtubers repeating themselves, making hack jokes, narrating their video title & outline, vapid explanations of common knowledge, etc. Any of which can be customized to your taste via a system prompt!

This kinda semantic filter would actually be an immensely powerful UI tool for all webpages and media, now that I think about it...

just use sponsorblock today, works fine on all my devices. https://github.com/ajayyy/SponsorBlock

from mobile phone to tv to pc.

Do check the settings too, SponsorBlock is best known for skipping sponsored segments but it also has markers for things like intros, previews, self-promotion, and filler jokes/skits which aren't skipped by default but can be if you want them to.

The category for "non-music section" for music videos is great. Would probably make the extension worth it, if that was all it did.

Also look into DeArrow. Replaces clickbait titles and thumbnails.
